If the profile is Stereo Duplex, pulseaudio won't use the surround channels, so how do you determine that they are playing sound? Are you playing surround content with some media player that bypasses pulseaudio? Or do you mean that even when playing stereo content through pulseaudio, while the Stereo Duplex profile is selected, sound comes out of those connectors? > I have 3 input ports Mic1 (external), Mic2 (internal) and Line-In. > While I change input ports - Mic1 and Line-In still play sound. > Work just Mic2 (internal) If switching the ports doesn't do anything useful, then I think pulseaudio just doesn't handle your sound card. The amixer output that you attached showed that there are two elements with name "Capture" and two elements with name "Input Source". Pulseaudio uses the element name as a unique identifier, so these duplicate elements might be the reason why port switching doesn't quite work for you. I wonder whether the problem should fixed in pulseaudio or alsa: should pulseaudio support duplicate element names, or should alsa refrain from exposing duplicate element names...? -- Tanu Kaskinen
